2.9 KiB
2.9 KiB
A very experimental Fediverse server for microblogging/“toots”. Not fully functional yet - I’m still working on making all the basic bits work! For more background and information, see my blog posts about it.
Indended features:
- Can run on serverless hosting (no need for worker daemons)
- Multiple account domains possible per server
- Async evented core for fan-out/delivery
- Mastodon client API compatible (eventually)
Deployment
Requirements:
- Python 3.11
- PostgreSQL 14+
- Lots of patience This is very experimental
Setup
More deployment docs will come soon! Just know that you need to run
the Takahē Django app, and then either hit /.stator/runner/
or run ./manage.py runstator at least every 30 seconds.
Roadmap
Takahē is still under very active development towards something I’m willing to call a beta. I’ve grouped features here into milestones, along with if they’re done yet or not. None of this is final, and the further into the future it is, the less sure I am about it.
